Reference image, I want it to look like this. I think it's the eyes that's off.
I looked up a lot of Youtube videos on anime sculpting and they all look somewhat off. None of them manage to replicate the beauty of a 2D drawing. The only good one I found was of Ochako. I want to be the first to break that trend.

Sculpting isn't hard like drawing, most people become professional within 1 year of practice. I just want to become a pro in half that time. My face sculpt is pretty good for a day's worth of sculpting. It's a wip of course and the hair is a matter of how much time I invest in it. I want some critique on the face and also should I make the eyes flat circles instead of spheres?

>>896602
>>896603
>>896605
>>896608
Case in point regarding your dunning-kruger. Go learn proper 3D, don't bother trying to fast-track because you clearly don't have the aptitude for it. Do not, however, do donuts. Start by modelling your room, bedsheets and curtains and all, and get feedback for that first. Don't be a loser faggot.

>>896627
Thanks for the advice, I was never planning to do donuts because it looked stupid and a waste of time anyway.
But you are going to need to elaborate, what do you mean by "proper topology"? Are you saying my kalaeidoscope has to follow a predetermined topological ruleset otherwise it's not appealing? I don't quite understand. I have covered box modeling, that's how I made my torii gate and I have also acquired a basic understanding of geometry nodes and everything other than sculpting in the past few weeks. It was easy, not hard at all. Rendering is a matter of investing time, and I want to jump right into sculpting which is where my drawing skills will shine.
Sculpting and modelling are two completely different subjects, even if it's both 3DCG. I want to know both but I have already developed enough understanding of the latter so what I want to focus on now is sculpting.
I have people willing to hire me provided I have the skillset, which is why I'm in a hurry.
I even modeled the dragon horns without any tutorial, just using my own reasoning skills. I can model pretty much any basic object I want. It's a matter of where I put my time. Modelling my room would be easy, I might do it another time but why does it have to be now? What will I learn from it?

Can you give me feedback on what I've done so far?

Your models didn't initially interest me when they were by themselves, but they do look interesting now that you're put them together. If you improve your technical skill and knowledge, you may be able to create something really cool.

>>896589
With 2d art, you take a real-world 3d form and turn it into a shape, but with 3d art you keep 3d forms as 3d forms. When you take a 2d shape (like anime), and try to turn it into a 3d form, it doesn't always work out well, almost like trying to increase the detail in a low-resolution image. Even if you only want to make anime, it would help to study the form of real-world faces, then combine that knowledge with anime to get a 3d anime character that works. Studying emotion would help out the most, since that seems to be the main issue with >>896586.

Mouth nose and looks spaced closer in the reference which you fixed. You can subtle cheeks that transition into the orbital with of a polished surface under the eyes (always reference real anatomy anime characters are just symbol representations of things like the eyes, nose, and mouth). Jaw should be slightly obtuse here (this one looks like a 100 degree angle) with the straight lines gradually curving or even can be more angular at the point it lines up at the bottom of the nose. Usually anime characters have that transition above the mouth to denote the jaw line and help form cheeks.
not bad in a few areas but I there are clearly places where more work on fundamentals are needed. The closed right hand on the 5th model going left to right is good shows massive improvement but then the left turns into an arcade claw with too long slender fingers (remember middle finger and palm are the same length with the primary form of thenar eminence being a circle starting at the wrist and ending at the halfway point of the palm). Never be satisfied until proportions and silhouette fully match your references and your anime drawings look manga/anime style hyaku pasento. Make sure when you look it as a whole, especially the face, determine that it exudes Esdeath. Is it believable to you imagining someone else made it for a film and presented it to you as the art director, or is it a cheap Chinese imitation created to look more like a doll that you wouldn't approve for production?

Also props for being one of the few artists left to make your own anime head.
>>897497
Recreating the same character from multiple angles with different poses and expressions consistently without it looking like a different character is extremely hard. I've know very technically skilled art students who've worked in animation, with one for as long as 7 years, beat themselves up over it still being their weakest point. The fact that OP is even working on this deserves compliment.

Personally as 2D artist mainly who enjoys 3D modeling and sculpting on the side. Best program that gives you more of a drawing/clay sculpting feel is Zbrush. If you are in school you can get a free academic license so you can practice to your hearts content. Also follow Zbrush artists like SMAARTIST (Stephen Anderson) he gives full break down on how to block out and add full detail. One I'm working on

Grind, if you're 7/10+ at art but 1/10 on tech you'll still have to work. Vice versa too. If you're already competent at both, maybe 7/10 for both, you'll do it in half a year, maybe less. Otherwise, you're looking at a 1-2 year grind minimum. Some who don't have time to do it at least 6 hours a day for a whole year will take even longer, like 5+ years.

me again and i geniuenly believe you should familiarize yourself with the basic fundamentals of 3d modeling and get an understanding before you venture out to realms of "professional sculpting"

its still would be a waste to just start over so finish it and look at it as a pratice piece if anything. you have a clear understanding of drawing but its a completely different medium, which is why a guy who only draws with gouache brushes wont be able to instantly become a perfect graffiti artist due to the muscle memory and more complex details that a spray can and a brush have

im repeating myself but start with that blockout and add nessecary details on a fly. there isnt any given situation in which you switch between dyntopo (dynamesh if you arent a gay blender user) and subdivison, atleast not for me but i also suck at sculpting even though i do.
